Are you really so blind as to not acknowledge the role that christianity has played in denying science - even to this very day with "intelligent design".

The fact is that the early Roman church burnt thousands of greek and roman texts about mathematics, science and philosophy because they did not conform with the christian legends. These texts were considered "peculiar things" and St Paul gave instructions that they should be destroyed (Acts 19:19).

The ignorance of this approach is, perhaps, highlighted by Acts 19 where it states that disease is the result of "bad spirits" - a position that many christians are now forced to back away from.
